Oaktree Restaurant and Bakery

NPB Art Studio Studio News Chalk illustrations, chalk menu, Design Scout, oaktree restaurant

Last week, Nancy Pochis Bank Art Studio drew a lot of bread. Seventeen loaves, to be exact. The Studio was hired by DesignScout to hand-letter and illustrate five menu boards for the Gold Coast’s Oaktree Restaurant and Bakery. The real loaves themselves are works of art and our Studio artists enjoyed creating chalk illustrations of each one. Thank you to Studio Artists Jenny Mecher, Brandin Hurley and Liz Ahlem for their work on this project.

Chicago Public Artwork Goes International

In the summer of 2007, “Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” was launched in Chicago. Nancy Pochis Bank was among an international group of artists selected by the jury to design and create a globe to be displayed in the lakefront exhibit.

Since the start of the "Cool Globes" project, Nancy has created four 5’ globes that have been exhibited across the United States and internationally.

“Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” is a non-profit organization established to raise awareness of climate change and inspire individuals and community leaders to embrace solutions. The public art exhibit features larger-than-life globes, each designed to depict a solution to global warming.
